Safe Household Water Storage

Okay kiddo, we need to make sure the water we drink at home is clean and healthy for us. To do that, we need to store it in a safe way. Do you know what storage means?

It means keeping something in a safe place so that we can use it later.

Now, let's talk about how we store water. First, we need a container or a jar to keep the water. It needs to be clean and made of safe material like plastic or glass. We don't want to use jars or containers that are broken, dirty or have cracks because dirty water can get inside and make us sick.

Next, we need to make sure the water we store is clean. Tap water is usually safe to drink in most countries, but we can never be too cautious. Water filters or boiling the water are effective ways to make sure the water we store is clean and free from bacteria or viruses.

It's also important to keep the container or jar sealed or covered so that nothing can get inside, like bugs or dirt. We can use a lid or cover to do that.

Finally, we need to make sure we check the water container or jar from time to time. We might see some dirt or debris floating in the water, which means we need to clean and disinfect the container before we refill it with clean water.

That's it, kiddo! With these simple steps, we can make sure the water we store at home is safe, clean and healthy for us to drink.
